You would have to be extremely evil to be a far comparison to any other bank.

Thats impressive.

I hate this clown.

MTG can just fuck off.

For a lot of trump supporters, this is why they voted for him. He gave them a licence to be racist and sexist and bigoted, etc.

Al the things trump is, they are. And him being in office legitemises them. It makes them feel “heard” instead of “opressesed.”

Granted (of course) hate speech and any form of misogyny or predjudice (all of the above) should be illegal. It should be “oppressed.” But from their perspective, they aren’t allowed to be what they are, and trump makes them feel like they can.

Its a devastating realisation that i came to whilst watching those trump rally videos where the comedians go and interview the attendees with the aim being ro let them mock themselves by being caught out in a web of contradiction.

When the interviewers say biden did x y z terrible things and the trump simps say “yeah because biden is terrible and an awful person and should be in jail” but then they pull the rug and say, “sorry, i read the wrong but, that was trump who did those things”

When faced with the fact that trump is the one who did all the awful things they suddely switch over like they are bipolar and say, oh well trump is perfect so i dont care that he did those things. Or trump had a reason that made it ok. Or oh, i did t know he did that, but im still gonna vote for him.

Atheism is the lack of belief in a deity. It’s not a belief that one doesn’t exist.

There’s a distinction there. You can look that up. You will find you are mistaken.

P.s.i find your willingness to trivalise scientific research and discovery as “some book” intollerable.

In the context of my original point, the difference between a scientific theory and some political monstrosity not believing something because they have no personal experience of the subject is incredibly large.

Don’t try to legitimise that clown.

People aren’t atheist because they have no personal experience proving the existence of a god.

Atheism isn’t a belief system.

The lack of evidence for a god is why atheists exist.

Personal experience and evidence are two different things.

How most dumb people reason.

I have no personal experience of this thing, so it must mean it’s not real.

If i dont know, nobody knows.

Most right wingers think their views are legitimate because the right wing exists as the direct opposition to the left. But i think that view is warped.

We need to start considering right wingers as extremists and not the opposition. They should be outliers on a spectrum where the left is much more central and the right is much more to the extreme right

|----------------------------------------left wing----‐-----center----------------------------------------right wing--------|

Like that

They think their views are as right as ours are left. If they were, they would likely be welcome here.

What a feeling.

I’m not a fan

Of this joke.

Just circle the picture, search it or select and copy the text. (If you have an android phone)

I looked this up after typing a response to make sure I wasn’t mistaken, but its only honey bees that die when they string you

From google “First off, male bees in any species cannot sting as only females have the bodily anatomy to do so. Secondly, only the honey bee can die after stinging, this is due to the honey bee’s stinger. A honey bees stinger is made up of two barbed lancets, meaning when they sting, the stinger cannot be pulled out again.”

I didnt realise that the worker bees were female! Male bees are good for nothing but breeding. They cant even sting. Bloody layabouts!

No, i dont think so. They are different. I think wasp stings are slightly alkaline, and bee stings are acidic. They need different treatments.

Fair points! Elon is already likely to go down in history, but not for good reasons.

I wonder if elon has been testing all these rockets in a desperate attempt to escape the planet with a bunch of other billionaires now that global warming is on track to destroy us. It would help me understand why the wealthy all seem so hell bent on accelerating the destruction.

Where can i find this within settings?

If something is engaging, interesting, and entertaining, then it is far more likely to stick in your mind or teach you something new than a single sentence. This 17-minute video may do more to raise awareness of google search’s enshitification than any single sentence or minutes worth of info would ever have.

I dont disagree with you, but i dont think it matters. The video will help people.

Thats subjective though…

New to who?

The video is really interesting and more useful than that single sentence though.

If i had fallen for it, i would have had a quarter ponder :)
